We are requested to call the atten-
ton of the council to the fact that
the Missouri Pacific railway, when
grading north of town, put in but a
small piece of thing where the grade
crosses the north city ditch. In con,
sequence it is claimed that the first
heavy rain, not having sufficient
opening at said ditch, will back up
and food the whole bottom lying west
of the railroad. This should be
looked after at once.

ate it with great avidity. l soon found,
however, that the burning was injurious,
as it was impossible to conduct it without
cooking the cactus to a greater or less
extent, which cased purging in the ami

the thorns without scorching, | took ad-
vantage of the botanical fact that the

$50, Senator Fair is President
OF tho Nevada Bank of San Fran
cisco, vice Flood, resigned because OF
ill.health? Well! we'll! We begin
to think that there is something, after
al, in the stories Of tho approaching
dissolution of Mr.. Flood, and, POSI-
bly,, in the reported impairment of
the cash assets of the bonanza firm.
Not that they would indicate its
forthcoming failure, even if the worst
Of the stories were true, because the
trio known - the bonanza firm of
recent years cannot be worth less than
t?b 100000. But At this distance it
looks very much a. if Mr.. FAIR was

THE ALICE SHUT DOWN.

The shutdown of the Alice mine,
at Butte, on account of the price of
salt. is . very serious occurrence, as
there IL good reason to fear that it
may be followed by the closing of the
older silver mills in the camp. The
silver mines at Butte grow base and
lower in grade a. depth is attained,
aud this, with the price OF the large
guam titiss of salt used in reduction,
and the cost OF labor, has rendered
silver mining in Butte Improbable
for some time, except in the newer
properties, suoh a. the Blueb,rd. The
Lexington has been running largely
on custom ores during the past year
or two. The future of Butte lies in
copper mining, and in that the camp
is enjoying far greater prosperity than
ever before. Copper will make OF
Butte . larger city than she now is.

Little Women.

Little Women
Cincinnati Sun: Few have any idea
of the trials and tribulations of cult
waited women, small in stature, who
seek honest employment in this city.
The little lady may be modest, pretty
neatly dressed, affable in conversation,
and agreeable in manner, yet almost
every avenue leading to a respectable
living is closed to her. The ]shopkeeper
picks his female help in the spirit that
animates him when he makes a display
of goods in his windows. And it must
be confessed that practically, if not
theoretically, he is right. "A command
ing and fine-looking woman will sell a
sealskin cloak in five cases out of six,
where a little body would fail. The
little lady may be refined gold, but
there is nothing impressive about her
Her small stature is a misfortune that
she cannot remedy.
She cannot become a foor-walker in
a dry goods emporium, for she lacks
the swoop and carriage and the lordly
aplomb which awe employers and at
tract purchasers. She has great trouble
in securing even a place behind the
counter. Her fragility and tiny size
are in the way. She cannot reach the
goods on a top shelf, MORGAN she return
them after = sale ismade without climb
ing to the counter, which u%ngraceful
act would qnench the last spark of
dignity left by nature at her birth.
She is out of place, again, in the par
lors of a fashionable milliner or dress
maker. You may find her sitting in a
little back Don adjoining, stitching
away in a bad light and a worse atmos-
phere, with her knees up to her chin,
but you will never see her in the sales
room.
"a small woman is out of place in a
showroom" said Nine. Demorest when
n of her friends sought a situation
for a worthy but understood lady. II
have no use for her there. She call
not sell even a pattern. People will not
60 to her. They will hardly ask her a
question. They pass her by as though
she was a child and 60 to a saleswo-
man more stylish and commanding.
One is prominent and the other insig-
ni6cant, and the prominent figure in
variably attracts attention."
A place for the little lady was found
in the mailing department at IS a week.
AT the same time a tall woman of
good figure who carried her small
head like a Juno, neither well educated
nor particularly agreeable, was placed
in the showroom at $14 per week.
She was not as refined nor as pains
taking as the little one, but she had
the physique so highly priced by an ex-
perienced modiste. The little one toiled
ten hours a day, with hardly a respite,
while the big woman walked grandly
up and down the parlor, experimenting
sales and keeping everything trim.

The meeting OF the East Dallas city
council last night was reasonably har-
monious, considering tho important
question before them, which was the
report of the board of school exam
liners. The board reported that with
the exception of six applicants all fel
far below the minimum Of 80. Col.
Simpson gave few specimens in
spelling of some of the applicants:
Rule, r-o-o-l; fuel, f-e-w-c-l rare,
Fair, and SO on. There were seven-
teen applicants.
Mr.. Murnane offered an ordinance
exempting from the requirements OF
having a certificate at the hands OF the
board of examiners those teachers
who taught last term
After considerable discussion the
vote was taken as follows; Murnane,
O'Reilly, Gamer and Haskell voted
aye; Bird, Wood and Wheat nay. The
mayor voted nay and the ordinance
got stuck and there it is, and that is
about where the council left the mat
ter.
